Company information

When travellers arrive, we enjoy welcoming them warmly, giving them a quick tour, and leave them in peace. Even though we respect all insects and birdlife, the occassional spider or mosquieto will be taken care of. We don't kill bees as we have a bee and bird friendly garden.

Property information

We are just your ordinary home away from home. No frills, just plain affordable, clean, peaceful place. We welcome international travellers, local travellers, families, contractors, travelling agents, church groups, biker groups..... everybody is welcome here. When you are booked in, we leave you to yourself, and respect your space and privacy, as long as you respect others and the peace and quiet we strive for.

Neighbourhood information

The house is in a residential neighborhood with mostly elderly residents, some with dogs which might bark occassionaly, sometimes younger family members are visiting and their might be a family gathering. Other than that, it is a quiet neighborhood, with mostly only the sound of birds and crickets. It really is still in Stilfontein!
